"I personally recommend something that protects just the back and the edges."
"These are the protectors i got! i absolutely love them! i have the pink kindle paperwhite 12th gen and they fit perfect."
"A pack of matte screen protectors. it’s the exact same finish as the normal kindle screen so it doesn’t take away from the book like experience."
"A case with a cover. SOP for Kindles. :)"
"Flip case is ideal..I also got a sleeve ... I certainly like the naked kindle...but use the flip case as it's super easy while traveling"
"Remote wireless page turner
Flip case magnetic wake/sleep with cute front and clear back for stickers/personalization
Padded sleeve to hold page turner etc
Stand or adjustable pillow"
"The only must have accessory is a case with a cover. Everything else is unnecessary"
"The basic kindle is now fantastic. It is the cheapest. Has a great matte screen and is extremely portable and light."
"I love it. I use it hours more per week than I did my last kindle."
"I have the new basic and I love it."

"I have the Kindle Paperwhite with the warm (yellow) light and I definitely use it, but even the basic version without the warm light will be totally fine!"
"I also upgraded from PW 7th gen to the newest PW SE and couldn't be happier - its bigger, snappier, has tons of storage, the screen is crisp and has pleasant warm light which I use nearly all the time."
"Any recent device will be lovely, the; Basic, Paperwhite, Signature or Coloursoft, all excellent options."
"I love the writing functions of the scribe"
"I’ve got the newest paper white signature and I’m in love"
"The 12th gen is just snappier in all regards, it switches pages faster, its got a cool animation for page flipping, in PDFs it zooms and pans much better"
"The newest paperwhite would be a huge improvement to what you have, it’s very nice"
"Woot has the 2018 release for $29.99 and I have this one. I still works great."
"For manga the Paperwhite would be a better choice because of the 7 inch screen size."
"There's a kids Paperwhite on Amazon I would 100% recommend!! It has a 2 year warranty and a case."

"I have a Libra 2 and love the page turning buttons and the ability to hold it comfortable one handed."
"I would go with either a Clara BW or Libra Colour."
"The Clara BW costs the same as a kindle basic with ads removed. It is waterproof."
"I would look into the Kobo Libra Color before making a decision."
"If you want to borrow from the library, kobo (as this is not supported on kindle in Australia…. It sucks)"
